REFUGE.

BY

THE AUTHOR OF

THE GUIDE TO DOMESTICK HAPPINESS.

giles, William

When boist'rous winds and stormy billows roar,
Disturb the deep, and rend the rocky shore,
The foaming seas in swelling mountains rise,
Forsake their caverns, and attempt the skies:
Ere long succeeds the placid calm serene,
And stops the progress of the frightful scene:
The rolling waves in gentle currents glide,
And softly murmur down the ebbing tide.
